Trip to Peach Farm





On Monday hubby and I decided to visited a peach farm nearby that we hadn't been to before. We picked up a friend to go with us, she is a recent widow and doesn't get out much. They sell ice cream too! I got a strawberry ice cream cone, she and my hubby got the peach cone.

Of course I had to get some peaches also. Yesterday I made a cobbler out of them. 

 After filling our bowls,this is all that was left.


Looks like the two of us ate a lot! We did!


Peach Cobbler is one of my favorite desserts and of course it is even better with Vanilla Bean Ice Cream.






Here is my recipe if you would like it.

Peach Cobbler

1 stick butter
Sliced peaches
1 cup Flour
1 cup sugar
1 tsp. salt
2/3 cup milk


Place butter (I use real butter) in baking dish at 350 degrees and melt .
Mix flour, sugar, salt together, add milk and stir well.
Pour into baking dish over butter. 
Place peaches in mixture but do not stir.
Bake 35 to 45 minutes at 350 degrees. 

When I use can peaches I use a large can. When using fresh peaches,I use 5 or 6 large peaches.

Enjoy and have a Blessed Day!

Life's A Peach and Bees Sting





I took this photo at Dickey's Peach Farm
a few weeks ago. I love to visit there and 
get some of there peaches. They also have
peach ice cream!

But first let me tell you what happened to
me this morning.  I was watering my hanging
basket that was next to my fennel. All of a 
sudden I felt a sting on my arm.






I hadn't notice that my fennel was covered
with these little stingers!!
 Bumble Bees!

I guess I'll take notice from now on!


Here they are on my fennel.
It's been over 5 hours and it still hurts.



When we got home from church yesterday
my new neighbor and friend, Lisa, had left
me a half dozen of the prettiest and largest
peaches, at my door. She had gone to Dickey's!
(boy am I glad I had told her about them)



We had eaten 2 of them that day, with only 4 left
I decided to make a peach cobbler. (I had to pamper myself a little, after all I had a sore arm)




 Here's how you make it.




Cut up your peaches. I used 4 but they are
large. If they are small use 1 or 2 more.

Melt 1 stick butter.




 Mix together
1 cup flour,(I use self rising)
1cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup milk






 That's it !! 
Just pour the mixture into the butter, but don't stir!




 Drop the sliced peaches onto the mixture, don't stir!
The dough will rise to the top.
Bake in preheated oven at 350 degrees for 30 to 40 minutes or until brown on top.







Extra good with vanilla bean ice cream!



Enjoy and
Have a Blessed Day!
